like

mad charge to central Europe

which would have turned out horrible

yeah Trotsky would've 100% gone for a suicidal charge

He wouldve tried to pretty much destroy the soul of Russia, create a Sweden of sorts, only worse

given how the USSR needed Molotov pact shit to push back against Hitler

Stalin was in many ways the only leader capable of leading USSR against Hitler

this much is true

that's the sad part

but as a *communist leader* he was not a super good one. and he was a communist, no doubt of this, but just imo not a very good one

i think he actually saved Russia and not many people realize that

he did destroy Germany tho :/

oh he saved much more than Russia. he saved Ukraine, Belarus and, I think, ultimately Poland despite what Poles say

but that's pretty much on everyone who thought Operation Barbarosa was a good idea

because Nazis weren't gonna fucking tolerate the slavic Poles come on 😄

saved Ukraine?

well in a way

oh yes Nazis would've absolutely killed off the Ukrainians

they weren't pure fam

needs some of dat lebensraum

in a way the Iron Curtain was good, defended the Nations from all the Western Brain Washing right

gibs me dats lebensraum

well that's the thing

lots of people think that "muh guldural margsism is ruining the West"

but in fact,

cultural merchantism

the place where that "cultural marxism" (not Marxism in actual fact) originates is the West

Nazis did Ukraine and Poland a huge favor too, cleaned it up.. same with Lithuania, no one wants to give Hitler that much favor now

and where it was absent, was the Soviet bloc

that's true

because Stalin purged the noses

yea, frankfurt was west germany right

so they pretty much remained only in Western Liberal Democracies, France, US, Germany

in fact, "identity politics" are entirely idealist form of politics, and Marxism is *materialist* - it doesn't even make sense to talk of "Marxist minority/majority politics" in relation to identity

> because Stalin purged the noses

eh, Stalin purged everyone

the fetish for equality has been associated with marxism

Marx respected that there were different cultures and they wouldnt mix

equality in productive relations and labour, mind you. its a very specific form of equality that Marxism seeks

thats why people say cultural marxism despite identity politics and marxism only mixing with college students

liberating the worker doesnt mean mixing all the different workers together

lol
